The Human Trafficking of International Students: A Much Needed Conversation
Human trafficking takes place in Canada and can happen to anyone. In this webinar, we're joined by Paola Carmagnani (she/her), from the Canadian Centre to End Human Trafficking to debunk myths and misperceptions about human trafficking in the Canadian context. We will also shed light into the conditions that make students vulnerable to exploitation, and expand on risks factors specific to international students, where trafficking intersects with immigration. Bearing in mind the ongoing conversation of curbing the rhetoric around newcomers, particularly the blaming of international students and refugees for the housing crisis and access to basic needs like food security; this workshop will also examine the business model in post-secondary education and address the root causes of human trafficking that lead to the circumstances of immigration status uncertainty for international students across Canada. The goal of the presentation is to equip participants with actionable information about how students are impacted, prevalent forms of trafficking, potential indicators and red flags as well as best practices to prevent and respond to occurrences.

Jennifer Gillies should STOP going around promoting herself and actually do her job at the uwaterloo. All talk and no action. This explains why there are massive turnover at the disability office.
great idea
Amazing content. I recommend using smzeus”.”com!!! ! It’s a great way to grow your channel.
Jay Dolmage, associate professor of English at the University of Waterloo who researches disability accommodations, shares that "I think for a lot of students who come to university even if they had accommodations based on disability in high school they no longer seek those accommodations in the university because the culture here tells them that it's not okay to admit that they need help that it's not okay to admit to any form of weakness and if they need to just kind of work harder and I actually think that that is that that feeling is multiplied for faculty that many many faculties who have disabilities that may need accommodation don't seek those accommodations because it would be seen in some way as weakness so on" ua-cam.com/video/DrBmNEa721Q/v-deo.html
Aliçia Raimundo, 26, shared with Maclean's magazine, "While attending the University of Waterloo several years ago, she didn’t pursue accommodations for her mental health and learning disabilities because she found the documentation requirements overwhelming. She figured, 'I’m not failing, so is this worth it?' Raimundo recalls. “I could have been doing 15 to 20 per cent better, but at the time I didn’t want to fight for the accommodations." www.macleans.ca/society/health/how-universities-are-helping-students-with-invisible-disabilities/
